Default installing a new fin spoiler???

Has anyone bought and installed the new fin spoiler? I'm new to the forums and was thinking about buying one for my IS 250.

What prices has anyone payed, or has anyone done it yourself?? Any good pics of one up close??

Thanks

fin Spoiler? Are you talking about the rear boot spoiler? Or the Shark Fin spoiler which it needed for Nav System?

Shark Fin Spoiler. I have the nav system, but I bought my car before it came with the spoiler. I like how it looks, so was thinking about just getting it for cosmetics.

The "shark fin" is not a spoiler. And yes someone did install one. You have to gut the interior of the antenna to install it. Unless you want to make a hole on your roof.

so there is a way to do it without making a hole on the roof, right? any way to get a hold of how to do it? or even a good place to order one besides the dealer?

Yeah, just gut it out and remove the pegs.

These two threads should help you installing it.

These items are only at dealers. So that's your only choice really.
